I mean it’s just so, so, so blue. Really, really blue. Bluer than blue can be. The sort of blue which only the unhinged and the deranged demand. Which is exactly how seriously a car like this should be. Deride it as “smurfish,” or, if you’re being very obtuse, “a skittle,” but the truth of the matter is that it…

For 178k, you could build a better Jeep without a salvage title and still have plenty of money left over to shower your friends in champagne.

I would have bought the shit out of a 6 wagon...but Mazda US has decided that it would cannibalize the higher profit CX-5 so they won’t bring it over. I would have special ordered one and waited for it to show up...but that’s not an option.

I bought a 2015 Volvo V60 R Design because I got tired of waiting for Mazda to…

I bet if you let people go down range, they would.

The long and the short: Those two should be permanently ejected from football and brought up on relevant charges. There’s no excuse for what they did - even if ‘ordered from the sidelines’ becomes the ‘excuse’. These two cannot be trusted to do the right thing. If it came from the sidelines as a coordinated attack,…

I wonder if the hex wrench set is included in the sale...

Steer clear of this pile of s***. Front end body work, rebuilt trans at 58k, hacked up electrical system and, in spite of what he says - tons of ‘aftermarket shit’.

I’m using Ghostery in Chrome - I didn’t have as fluid an experience with Firefox and Ghostery.

I have Ghostery and watch no ads.

You’ve clearly not spent any time in Illinois near Chicago on the highways. I grew up in So. Cal. and go back once a year...sadly, it’s refreshing that people in California are not driving like most people in Illinois.

When I travel to other states (Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan) and there’s an a-hole in the left lane…

Having flown on ANA and Japan Airlines to Japan several times, I’m not surprised they made the list. The planes are very clean, the bathrooms don’t reek of half digested Mexican food (yeah, United, I’m looking at you) or vomit (thanks for that experience, American Airlines).

Domestic airlines are, in general, real…

It looks more like a Lincoln than a Cadillac. This is what Lincoln would have put together if they had their shit together or cared about selling cars.

It’s because they’re all so fucking busy looking for water bottles and ‘too much toothpaste’.

As if GM needs to find yet another way to convince potential buyers to avoid the brand.

2.6 million Chevy Cobalts were recalled last year as a result of faulty ignitions that turned off the car’s engine and disabled power steering, breaks, and airbags. One recall led to another, and ultimately Chevrolet recalled 30 million total vehicles.

*brakes* are what you want to work on a vehicle.

The people who got themselves stuck on Lake Shore Drive were those who thought they could either beat the odds or that the weather people were going to be wrong. It should not have taken more than a few moments to realize that they would be stuck.

I lived in the ‘burbs and my garage was buried in snow. Once I dug it…

I have the 6 speed transmission and the I6 engine in my 2015 and while the shifts are not always perfect, it’s relatively smooth. I’ve got a heavy foot and I’m averaging 24MPG driving it in sport mode 90% of the time. I use the paddle shifters 50% of the time and the shifts are pretty quick. The flat torque curve on…

In a time where products are evolving to be more reliable than those in the past, I think this car qualifies, but your overall point is understood. It should be more accurately deemed “high maintenance” vs. “unreliable”. Given more attention to maintenance than a comparable vehicle, I’m sure it could be as reliable as…

Rare: “not found in large numbers and consequently of interest or value”

‘Value’ and ‘Interest’ are subjective. Quantity alone does not make an item rare.

There are a lot of people who think that ‘limited number manufactured’ means rare. It’s overpriced and less reliable than Dollar Tree trashbags.

Illinois has an ‘eavesdropping’ law because the crooked politicians thought it would help them not get caught incriminating themselves. If you’re dumb enough to say something out loud to other people and it can cost you your freedom, it should also be legal to record it.

This is a case of when “d-bags collide” -…
